After a good night's sleep we grouped up for our family picture and hit the road for another short drive and fun-filled day. As this was our fifth day driving, Little Bear was starting to get the hang of it and was asking, "Where are we going today, Mommy?" and "What are we going to do?" Of course, followed by, "I want to go back to the ocean!" Thankfully, I could tell him exciting news this particular morning: "We are going to see the ocean again today, AND your uncle, aunt, and cousin!" We were all thrilled for what was ahead of us!
We arrived in Monterey right around lunch time and found a "park" to walk the dog. WOW! What a park, right?
This park had the most beautiful overlook of the Pacific, complete with rolling tides crashing into the rocky shore. We walked along the small cliff overlooking the sight with LB clinging to our legs and screaming, "RUN!" He was still a bit frightened by the waves but did smile long enough to pose for a picture with Mama Bear.
After we stretched the dog's legs, we headed to a cool, shaded parking garage (just in case all the dog-lovers were wondering) and met up with Mama Bear's oldest brother and his family for an afternoon at the aquarium.
Those ARE real fish behind them.
The jellies!
First cousin fun
"Wow, let's go out there, cousin!"
After the aquarium, we drove a little further and were then blessed with dinner and beds at our family's home before heading out for the adventures awaiting us on Day 6.
